Features & Product Details

Yeti XD Sector Shaft Brace

The YETI XD JL/JT Sector Shaft Brace With Frame Side Track Bar Reinforcement Bracket was engineered to bolt onto the stock track bar mount on the frame. The purpose of this piece is two-fold. First, the sector shaft support is meant to help minimize the aluminum and steel steering gears from flexing/deflecting/moving when cycling your steering system side to side.

The second benefit of the product is to reinforce the frame side track bar mounting location to help minimize any deflection of this bracket and ensure that the mount doesn't break under extreme stress.

Premium Steering Upgrade for Off-Roading

If you're looking to further improve your off-road ready Jeep's performance, pick up the Steer Smarts Yeti XD Tie Rod Assembly today. Designed with proper clearance, this long tie rod assembly works in conjunction with your vehicle's upgraded chassis components for a perfect fit and consistent performance. Moreover, the included 30mm, 1 1/2 ton ball joints are the biggest and strongest available for the JK, so you won't have to worry about holding back on your favorite trails. Steer Smarts Reverse Pin technology prevents the linkage from flopping or rocking when you're testing the limits in your off-road warrior. This reverse pin was built right inside the socket, making for a superior design compared to weaker add-on supports seen on competitor's tie rods.

Heavy-Duty Construction & Installation Info

The Steer Smarts Yeti XD Tie Rod Assembly features impressive construction for superior strength and long-lasting functionality. The ball joints are crafted from cold-headed medium carbon alloy to provide incredible impact toughness for extreme duty usage. Steel on steel bearings provide ultimate fatigue strength, so they'll be able to handle the constant abuse of your Jeep's aggressive build. For even more strength, the rod ends at both the adjuster and draglink feature large 1-1/4" rolled threads which are much more durable than the OE threads. Additionally, the adjuster is made from 1/4" thick wall 4130 DOM steel tubing to ensure the tie rod assembly won't loosen. When it comes to installation, this entire assembly is completely bolt-on and should only take just a few minutes to complete.

Adjuster Tube Key Features:

Tie Rod adjuster is manufactured from large diameter ¼ inch thick wall high strength 4130 Chromoly steel tubing for maximum buckling strength.

Adjuster clamps assure proper clamp force using conventional tools without the possible risk of loosening like large jam nuts.

Designed with right hand and left hand threads for quick and easy adjustment when installed on the vehicle.

Internal threads and tube are also e-coated for long term serviceability.

Note: A minimum of 17” wheels is recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: How is this different from the standard YETI XD tie rod?

A: The long version is wider overall to match factory Rubicon- and Mojave-width axles. Functionally, it’s the same heavy-duty construction as the standard tie rod, but the length is specific to these wider models.

The Steer Smarts Yeti XD Front Adjustable Track Bar gives you Superior Handling On-and-Off Road

For a suspension with the handling necessary to take on the toughest trails, you need to ready your Jeep Wrangler JL or Jeep Gladiator JT for battle with the Steer Smarts Yeti XD Front Adjustable Track Bar.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Why would I need an adjustable front track bar?

A: This bar works with 0 to 6+ inches of lift. Whether you’re running stock height with HD upgrades or a full off-road lift, it offers the adjustability needed to dial in axle alignment.

Q: Is this a direct bolt-on upgrade?

A: Yes. It bolts into the factory track bar mounts using OE hardware and requires no cutting, drilling, or modifications.
